Bespoke Shading For Your Home or Business

Bespoke Shading For Your Home or Business

By Bespoke Shading, Bespoke Shading for Business, Bespoke Shading for Home No Comments

Shading and blind installation can be pretty easy if you have a standard sized window, even if it’s a large one. But what about more difficult spaces? Not every home is uniform and fitting shades to an oddly shaped window can be challenging.

The good news is that bespoke shading is no longer a pipe dream. Whether it’s for your home or business, the team at John Deegan can find the right solution for you.

What’s the Difference Between Shading and Blinds?

Blinds will generally have slats or veins in them which disrupt the pattern. A shade is basically a soft window treatment that provides a smoother visual appearance. Shades can be made of soft fabrics, vinyl, even ‘woven’ woods and grasses.

Shading is a brilliant way to dress your window area and can be utilised to fit practically any size or shape space. The even better news is there are a lot more options available nowadays and we can deliver a bespoke solution that fits your needs and décor.

Bespoke Shading for Businesses

If you have a difficult window area, this is one of the best options for creating an elegant and appealing window dressing that makes your office or business look great. You can opt for stylish and contemporary designs or something more traditional. There are also options for chain and wand controlled blinds as well as motorised ones.

Bespoke Shading for the Home

While many new builds tend to have standard fit windows, older properties can have a range of different styles and shapes. That’s often what appeals about them in the first place. Bespoke shading is one option that can be used to fill these spaces, whether it’s a difficult bay window or an arched window above a door.

Of course, it doesn’t have to be a difficult space to consider today’s modern shading. We can create a whole look and design for your home whether you have standard size, bay windows or areas with bi-folding or slide glass doors.

At John Deegan, we start by taking a look at your property and assessing what the best solutions are. Undoubtedly, you will want to find something that matches your décor and we’ll be able to make suggestions you may not have thought of. We have access to one of the biggest ranges of blinds and shades, so creating a bespoke solution is not going to be a problem.

We have over thirty years of experience installing window and solar shading as well as traditional blind and curtain systems, so we know a thing or two about difficult spaces. Our expert team will be able to review your window space, whether that’s for the whole house or office or just a particularly difficult to dress area.

You’ll get access to plenty of expertise and a list of options to choose from that will suit your window space down to a tee. We take a lot of pride in having a good eye for design at John Deegan, so if you have something particular in mind we’ll be able to work closely with you to find the right bespoke shading solution.

Contemporary Blinds Installation

By Commercial Blinds in Liverpool, Contemporary Blinds Installation No Comments

We have a lot more options available nowadays when it comes to interior design than we did just a couple of decades ago. One area that has changed immeasurably is window décor. The range of contemporary blinds installations available means that you can create a huge number of different effects and make a big difference to the look and feel of your home.

At John Deegan, we’ve continued to keep our finger firmly on the pulse of blind and window décor development over the years and are able to offer bespoke solutions that exactly meet your needs.

Traditional Blinds

It used to be that blinds were only thought suitable for areas like the kitchen or bathroom. Thankfully, this is no longer the case. Even if you have large windows that fill a whole wall, you can find great blinds that add style and panache to your home.

There are different types of blinds that you can choose from, of course.

You may want traditional venetian blinds or a panel blind that has a funky design on it. You can vary the size of the slats and the width of the fitting as well as how your blinds are operated.

You might have a difficult shaped window that you are not sure how to dress – the great news is that our team can work through your ideas and come up with an elegant solution that really fits the bill.

Motorised Contemporary Blinds Installation

We see more customers looking for contemporary blind installations that are automatic. Motorisation has improved dramatically particularly over the last decade and the price has come down during that time too.

If you don’t want chords hanging down at the side of your blinds, going for mechanised models is an excellent solution. These can be operated by simply pressing a button. You can also link up your motor to your mobile phone. That means you can pick up your phone and raise and lower your blinds wherever you are. With some systems you are also able to set times when the window shade goes up or down – a great idea if you like to wake up in the morning to natural light.

Other Options

Traditional and motorised blinds are just a couple of options. You might also like to look at designs such as plantation shutters.

A lot will depend on the room you are considering. The type of blinds you have in your bedroom, for instance, may well be totally different to those you put up in the living or dining room.

Getting the Right Contemporary Blinds for Your Home

With so much choice it can be difficult to pick out the right contemporary blinds for your home. At John Deegan, we pride ourselves in helping customers find the exact installation that suits their home and their personal preferences.

With over 30 years’ experience, we obviously know a thing or two about blinds and all other window fittings. What sets us apart, however, is the time we take to get things right for our customers.

If you are looking for a contemporary blinds installation that stands out and complements your home, contact the professional and friendly team at John Deegan today.

The good news is that we’re becoming a lot more adventurous when it comes to window decor. If you are trying to move away from those traditional curtains, considering shutter blinds may well be a great alternative that has everything you are looking for.

Shutters are slightly different from traditional blinds in that they fit the frame of the window and therefore have a sturdier base. While very popular around Europe for many years, we’re now seeing them a lot more in UK homes because of their elegance and style.
